Training Deep Multimodal Neural Networks 🧠

Hi! I'm a final year Master's student at L. D. College of Engineering, where I'm advised by Prof. Payal Prajapati. My research focuses on developing computer vision models that can understand and learn long videos. To this end, my recent work explores learning multimodal representations from videos and textual queries to summarize long videos influenced by textual queries.

Previously, I completed my undergraduate studies in Computer Science and Engineering from Government Engineering College, Patan.

Professional Service

• Session Chair: ICARCV 2024 Image/vision session
• Teaching Assistant: Programming in C

Open Source Contributions

I have made 7 pull requests that have been merged into the code base of pandas. Contributions mainly include fixing bugs in sum and concat operations, and documentation improvements. Added tests for already fixed bugs, ensuring enhanced code quality and reliability.

Teaching

In my final year of my Master's program, I instructed bachelor's students in C programming and Data Structures and Algorithms at L. D. College of Engineering ❤️. Pic: Taking a lab session, explaining the concept and implementation of linked lists.
